Psychic's book goes beyond TV series

Being an avid reader, I'm not a big fan of TV. I do tend to fall hard for those mini-series adapted from books, such as "Game of Thrones" and just about everything on "Masterpiece Theatre."

One non-adapted series I watch regularly is A&E's "Psychic Kids: Children of the Paranormal," in which children having trouble understanding their gifts are brought together and guided by adult psychics and counselors. One of those psychics is Chip Coffey, who appears genuinely interested in helping children understand and live with speaking or hearing unseen entities.

Coffey grew up psychic, although he didn't fully understand and embrace what he calls a "gift from God" until later in life. His current book, "Growing Up Psychic: My Story of Not Just Surviving but Thriving — and How Others Like Me Can, Too," aims to go beyond the TV series, helping children and parents cope with being intuitive.

The book is filled with Coffey's life story, psychic experiences he's had growing up in a haunted house, tales from children of the TV series and intuitive people Coffey has met. A handy dictionary in the back explains the different types of psychic abilities.

Whether you have children with gifts, experience your own intuitive abilities or are like me, fascinated by those who do, this book is a great, personal guide to the paranormal.
